It was GREAT! I followed the recipe exactly except I omitted the nuts. I used french vanilla whipped topping and added a dash of cinnamon to the whipped topping mixture. It wasn't hard to make. I only suggest making sure that you put enough flour on the wax paper before pouring in the batter....I had a bit of a hard time getting the wax paper off without ripping the cake. I made 2-- one for now and since it turned out so well I froze the 2nd one for Thanksgiving. I will definitely make again!

The French Vanilla Cool Whip is different than what I normally would use for the filling (all cream cheese & sugar), but it made for a more tasty, yet lighter dessert. Very easy to make; don't get put off by the "rolling up" it requires. The trick is baking the pumpkin-flavored dough to the right doneness and letting it COOL COMPLETELY before trying to roll up.

I suggest you make one ahead of time to taste and make sure you like it before counting on it to serve up at a holiday party or meal.

Rolling the dough up into a towel is a technique I have never heard of in my entire life, but it was really fun to try out and worked great. The only problem I encountered was getting the filling to stay inside the roll. As I was rolling it up, filling was being squished out.
Still delicious though :-)

I took to a holiday party and had compliments by everyone. I bought walnuts already chopped, next time, I will chop them more, they were too large (but, I don't really like walnuts in cakes).
Will definetely make again.

Mmm...Mmm... this was SOOOOO GOOD! I made this around Halloween. The whole rolling up the cake, cooling, unrolling, and then icing is not the most pleasant thing in the world, but this cake is DEFINITELY worth the trouble!!! I think it might be the best cake I've ever had.
By the way, I had extra filling left over and it made a yummy fruit dip.

Absolutely delicious!Absolutely delicious! I make it every year by request. I'm making 6 tomorrow. 1 for Thanksgiving, 1 for Christmas, 1 for another get-together and 3 for gifts. I use cellophane and pretty wire ribbon to wrap them. They freeze very well! Just make sure they're wrapped really well. Let thaw overnite and it's as good as the day it was made.
